have howled a resounding 'No' at plans to allow foreigners to
play for Scotland.

Our exclusive phone poll showed that almost 95 per cent of Daily
Record readers are against the scheme.

New FIFA rules mean that foreign stars could turn out for Scotland
if they qualify for a passport here.

Parkhead midfield star Alan Thompson could also come in if the SFA bring in the new policy, which would allow uncapped English players to
swap countries as long as they have lived in Scotland for more than two
years.

However, a poll on our website resulted in almost one-third of
voters backing the proposal.

But more than 67 per cent agreed that only players of Scottish
descent should play for the national side.

It is clear proof that Scotland fans think the team should be made
up of true Scots.

As many of our website readers are ex-pats, it shows that many who
have left these shores are more open minded about using non-Scots than
those who remain here.

The issue has provoked a furious reaction from supporters and
players alike.

Yesterday, we reported how Scotland defender Christian Dailly
promised to lead a players' revolt if Vogts is allowed to fill his
Scotland side with foreigners.
